I've just taken on my 18 yr old boy around four months ago.unfortunately in wales there is no college courses he can go on.I'm quite shocked at how he is coming on.he's keen,enthusiastic and seems to enjoy grouting ??? In around two years he will be joining the navy and sailing the seven seas,but at least he will have some experience of the real world beforehand.
